It appears you're using NFS.

Back in my youth, the wise men told me that NFS was a horrible security
threat unless you also used YP, which was too sophisticated for me to
ever figure out. So these days I use sshfs, which is nice, but slower
than a turtle dragging a railroad engine.

Is NFS still a security problem? Does it still have that issue where
you never knew what port it would listen on? Do you still need YP,and
is YP as monumentally difficult as I remember it being?

Are a lot of you using NFS? Do you feel safe doing so?

Thanks,
